And We Are Red

Today depicted a slight sell off in some areas of the market. We began green with strength in various sectors. We even saw another mini oil rally followed by a bit of a decline then a slight comeback after hours. Tomorrow's futures are currently down but anything could happen through the night. Though the market turned red, there are many winners still out there. The trick is just to find them. Following the charts & the news can help us to determine when to buy or sell or investments. Believe it or not, today I actually sold DIS so that I could steal some profits & buy back lower. I hope this works in my favor. I'd like to get more DIS shares back around $115 but I will be watching the charts to see if/when that is feasible. In fact, today I sold many of my positions only holding the gainers with nice looking charts. For example, I kept BCRX & TNGO because they just keep doing well for me. I also held CGIX because I am still up on it, I have a good feeling about it & the chart's not too shabby either. I definitely have some stocks in mind to buy tomorrow. I'm excited to find more profits. As I've mentioned before, following the insiders helps me to find the stocks that I buy & sell. Here were the insider transactions that I saw today:

For those of you whom are curious, I typically post the trades chronologically. It definitely takes a little time to gather all of these & I know that it's not all of the insider transactions that occurred today. However, I do feel that it is the most complete list out there. That being said, I'm going to keep it brief on my notes here because I have a ton to do tonight.

As for the insider buying, KBIO stood out once again with another Form 4 filed by Shkreli. I truly wonder how long this KBIO rally will last. I also noted that XRX picked up some steam in the after hours session with its 13D filed by Carl Icahn. Another renowned investor Bill Ackman added stake in VRX to his hedge fund, too. The largest monetary investment into a company that I saw today was for CTXS with over $38 million worth of shares purchased. The CFO's that I tracked buying more shares in their companies work for: AGFS, MTGT, SRT, PAH, FVRG & CDTX.

On the sale side, I saw lots of big names as well. The top monetary sale didn't arrive until about half an hour ago. It was FB for over $165 million worth of shares dropped. CHDN also had a substantial amount of money dropped but they did it during trading hours unlike that sneaky FB. Anyhow, CHDN lost an investment of over $138 million in their shares. WBA came in third after the end of after hours with nearly $120 million worth of shares dumped. Also, just because I feel it is significant, UA had over $43 million worth of insider shares sold today (most during the regular trading session but the big one towards the end of after hours). Why are they selling? Who knows...I'm just tracking them & staying away from them for now. Lastly, the CFO's that I tracked selling today work for: ZAYO, SBUX, HQY, PICO, VC, AGII, AOSL, CATM, NEWS, TCX & BDIC.

That's enough for tonight. I hope this helps with your homework & that you are able to have a successful day on the market tomorrow.
